"Tales from Spenser, Chosen from the Faerie Queene" by Sophia H. Maclehose is a collection of stories written in the late 19th century. This anthology presents selected episodes from Edmund Spenser's famous epic poem "The Faerie Queene," specifically curated for a younger audience, focusing on themes of nobility, adventure, and virtue without delving into the more complex allegorical interpretations of the original work. The collection features well-known characters such as Una, the Red-cross Knight, and Prince Arthur as they embark on quests filled with magical encounters and moral lessons. The opening of the book introduces us to Una, the daughter of a king and queen who have been imprisoned by a fearsome dragon. Determined to save her parents, Una sets off to the court of Gloriana, where she meets the Red-cross Knight. Initially appearing as a humble and unassuming figure, the knight miraculously transforms into a noble protector upon donning the armor that Una has brought for him. As they begin their quest, they encounter challenges posed by Archimago, an evil enchanter who tries to separate them. The tale swiftly captures the essence of virtue, valor, and fidelity as Una, accompanied by her devoted lion, brave the treacherous paths to rescue her loved ones, highlighting themes of inner strength and resilience.
